NPR TRIGGER WARNING
"A twitter user with a good eye was recently looking at their archives and realized that they have placed a ‘trigger warning’ on the Declaration of Independence. Yes, really."

NPR'S "WHITE HISPANIC" HYPOCRISY EXPOSED
"POPEHAT ON NPR’S TED CRUZ RACISM: “First time I ever heard NPR use the term ‘White Hispanic’ was George Zimmerman. Second time today. Never for Castro, who’s white as snow.”
The “White Hispanic” thing is a case of dog-whistle othering, telling people that the target is outside the protection of the Democrats’ racial coalition and thus can be freely attacked. By engaging in such signalling, NPR is also signalling that it’s a full-blown part of the Democratic Party apparat, though that’s not really news. . . ." -INSTAPUNDIT

NPR'S MARA LIASSON FAUX ANALYSIS
Mara Liasson, told Weekend Edition on Sunday that Republican criticism of the Obama administration on the Crimea was misplaced. Oh really what orifice did she pull that out of? Here is exhibit A:
"she has stepped over the line with some significant historical revisionism. Liasson neglects to mention that President George W. Bush did, in fact, respond to the Russian invasion of Georgia with swift condemnation and sanctions--which Obama undid just months later.
That was the essence of the "reset" with Russia--which Liasson mentions, but only as a kind of policy posture. Obama not only responded weakly to the invasion of Georgia when it happened, but effectively ratified Russia's occupation of Georgian territory by dropping the sanctions amidst smiles and promises of new concessions.
So not only is Liasson wrong about the Republican response at the time, but she also leaves out the fact that it was never given a chance to run its course. Liasson also neglects to mention that Gov. Sarah Palin, then the GOP nominee for Vice President, warned at the time that Obama's approach would lead to an invasion of Ukraine."- Breitbart
Once again NPR like most of the liberal media shielding Barack Obama and attempting to blame Bush for when it is Obama who is the architect of the failure in the Ukraine.

ANOTHER BIAS HIT JOB ON THE TRUTH BY NPR'S MORNING EDITION PROGRAM
"On NPR's Morning Edition this week, reporter Ted Robbins had the makings of a good story about a congressional mandate that requires Immigration and Customs Enforcement to hit an expensive target for detention of illegal immigrants.
But the story careened immediately into editorial Never-Never Land with host Steve Inskeep's sophomoric introduction. Then Robbins drove it into the reportorial briar patch with his own editorial slant on a story that should have let the facts speak for themselves."

NPR'S WAR ON WOMEN. CONSERVATIVE WOMEN THAT IS.
"In this morning's hourly news update, National Public Radio (NPR) attempted to tarnish the late British prime minister Margaret Thatcher as a racist by suggesting that she supported apartheid in South Africa. Though Thatcher opposed sanctions against South Africa, and characterized the anti-apartheid African National Congress as a terrorist organization--which it was--she remained firmly opposed to the policy of apartheid.
NPR showed no interest in the facts of Thatcher's record on apartheid, turning instead to an ANC source, Pallo Jordan, to attack Thatcher. Jordan was "the ANC's chief propagandist in exile" when the organization was backed by the Soviet Union--a brutal regime responsible for the deaths of millions, and whose support for the ANC's military campaign may have set back the cause of the anti-apartheid struggle for at least a decade." - MORE HERE

OBAMA'S A NO JOKE ZONE AT NPR!
"Today's edition of National Public Radio's weekly On the Media show featured a segment on recycled advertising slogans, which closed by spoofing the Republican presidential candidates--but declining to spoof President Barack Obama."- BIG JOURNALISM

AND THE PROBLEM IS?
Leave it to NPR to make it appear that it is a problem that illegal immigrants leave an area when things get too hot for them. They are here illegally and they should be looking over their shoulders because they have broken the law. But, NPR reporter Debra Elliot makes it sound like there is a problem when illegal immigrants take their children out of schools because of Alabama's new get tough policy on illegal immigrants. There is no upside for the liberal bias of the NPR news report. Here are some of the money quotes:
"ELLIOTT: Since a federal judge left intact much of Alabama's immigration crackdown, 25 Hispanic students have withdrawn, another 40 plan to by the end of the week, and dozens of others have been absent. That's nearly a third of the south Alabama school's population of students for whom English is a second language."
At ten thousand bucks per student the school district and local taxpayers will be saving quite a bit over the years if they no longer have to pay the costs of educating the children of illegal immigrants. Of course no mention of this in Elliot's report.
Then there is Jose Hernadez whom Elliot interviewed. An illegal immigrant who is also working in this country illegally but, NPR ignores that. He's not only been working but, also fornicating here too as he has five count em five children. Again at ten thousand dollars a year per student guess who's paying to educate them? Again the taxpayers would be saving at fifty grand a year if Henandez leaves the area and that's just one illegal. Multipy that out by the others and real money is being saved.
Finally Elliot can't even see the benefits of having the illegals leave the area:
"ELLIOTT: Foley is a small town in Baldwin County in south Alabama. The county has one of fastest growing Hispanic populations in the state - up more than 200 percent from 2000 to 2010, according to the U.S. Census. Immigrants come here to work on farms, in seafood processing and in the tourism industry. But as they flee, the question is who will fill those jobs? "
Hmmm, perhaps some Americans who can't find jobs? Of course wages may have to rise. That's a good thing too! Or how about the other 99% Occupy Wall Street crowd. They are bitching they can't find work tell them to get their sorry asses down to Alabama! Of course there is one downside of illegals leaving Alabama they will be moving to other states and become a problem for those taxpayers.

WHERE TO BEGIN?
I've been listening to National Public Radio for years I even did radio shows at stations that were NPR affiliates in my younger days in college and beyond. Yes, I'm a registered Democrat but, I'm also recovering Liberal (it's a 12 step process). I have not been on the air in years but, still listen to a lot of radio. One of the stations I listen to is an NPR station near me during the day which has mostly a classical music format. But, I find myself either turning it off or getting pissed off when some of the NPR "news" programs come on like ALL THINGS CONSIDERED etc... The fact that the station carries these NPR programs has often prevented me from donating money. I don't want to support NPR anymore than I have too. When I do listen to the NPR programs the politically correct bias of the NPR mentality comes through loud and clear. Especially, I've notice on stories that deal with the illegal immigration problem in the United States. It's so easy to hear how the reporters and editors have been co-opted by the liberal and open borders crowd on the issue to down play or not cover the serious consequences of the failure of our Federal Government to enforce immigration laws. Especially when they use words like "undocumented workers", "migrant workers" etc... instead of the proper term which is illegal alien. The firing of liberal leaning Juan Williams for expressing his feelings and concerns following the terrorist attack on the Was the final straw for me and why I started this blog. NPR has no shortage of stories or commentators expressing their "feelings". The trouble for Williams his "feelings" did not fit in the tight Liberal confines of the NPR dogma. So they fired his ass. Perhaps they are not so "liberal" after all. So there it is. I'm not sure how much I'll be posting here but, when I hear something on NPR that raises my eyebrow at least I'll have a place to point it out and rant. Now back to my regularly scheduled life.
